One week in Kansai~

| | TrackBacks (0)
Havent been updating because 1)I went to Kansai for a short holiday and didnt have access to the net and 2)I was lazy. Going to Kansai really brought back lots of good memories and I really miss the time when I was in Kansai. Everytime I walk pass a certain place, I will be like "I came here with who-and-who and did this-and-that". =(
Before I start on my Kansai trip, I celebrated Halloween for the second time this year in Saijo. Unlike the first time, I actually bothered to dress up this time round. Actually, it wasnt much of a hassle to wear my costume because all I had to do was to get into it and button up. Simple as ABC~ I'm seriously going to wear and re-wear this costume until it starts to fall apart. Anyway, I was kind of glad that I wore my costume because it was a little chilly that night.


Ever since I moved to Hiroshima, my main source of food is instant noodles. I know it's not healthy but that's all I seriously know how to cook. And, I think the reason why my height shrunk was because I've been eating too much instant noodles of late. Hello, I need to grow taller not shorter!!!
I seriously ate alot during my trip to Kansai because it was so much easier to buy food there and my host-family cooked so yup, I think I gained back all the weight I lost here there. I was only there for 5 days but this was what I ate:
(Day 1 Dinner) Teppanyaki
(Day 2) 3-course Spaghetti meal, Teppanyaki AGAIN
(Day 3) Udon and Tempura, Sushi
(Day 4) Curry~, Cake
(Day 5) Katsudon + Zaru-soba, Ebimayo, Chapchae...etc
I felt really pregnant during my stay there and I'm back to eating instant noodles everyday now. :(

(Top left) Kanami brought me to the restaurant that she works for, mangiare Kureha, for lunch. My image of a salad is chopped vegetables topped with dressing but here, the salad was really interesting and delicious~
(Top right) Sakura ebi and Matsutake Peperoncino. Really really good. They gave us bread to dip into the sauce too.
(Bottom left) Pumpkin cake. I've never really thought of pumpkin as a dessert before coming to Japan but now I'm so in love in pumpkin!!!
(Bottom right) Torotama Udon and tempura! You can seriously tempura anything!!! I had ika tempura and chikuwa tempura that day~


(Top left) Had a craving for spicy food so Chieko brought me to this Indian curry place in Nishinomiya. I've been to Nishinomiya so many times but I've never seen this place before. The first thing I thought of when I entered the restaurant was "Hmm, at least the smell's authentic". However, the curry wasnt spicy AT ALL! In fact, it was like Japanese curry but at least the tandoori chicken that came with it was really good.
(Top right) Met Mariko in Kobe and we went to this cool cafe called Le Ba-Ta-Clan located in Mint. The interior design of the cafe was really pretty!!! Had pumpkin cake again!!!
(Bottom left) I miss breakfast at my host-family's house so much!!!
(Bottom right) Katsudon and soba set in Takarazuka.


Passion mix juice that I had in Le Ba-Ta-Clan. I really liked this drink because it wasnt too sweet and it went really well with the pumpkin cake that I had. Not cheap though...=(


Kanami was telling me that she wanted to bring me to this Instant Ramen Museum and I was like "ok!" Then, when I reached the museum, I realised that I've been eating instant noodles of the same brand since I came here. Haha.


One main attraction of the museum is that you can actually design your own cup noodles! I made one with curry base and I think I put in vegetables, meat, shrimp and hiyoko naruto~ I still cant bear to eat the cup noodles I made but I will have to eat it soon as it expires in like 3 weeks or something.


Tried to copy and draw the picture but FAIL!!! I am really bad at art...


The new udon shop near my host-family's house. It suddenly got really cold when I arrived in Kansai but I wasnt prepared for it so my host-family gave me some clothes to wear. Also, it became an excuse for me to buy stuff in Kansai~ Since it was cold that day and nobody wanted to walk, we went to the udon shop in a Mercedes-Benz!!! So freaking cool can! We finished eating at around 2pm but there was still a queue when we left!


At Kura-zushi. I think I saw meat sushi for the first time in my life there. Had lots of really delicious sushi there! I like how the fish used in Japan sushi places are really fresh, unlike the obviously frozen ones they use in Singapore. Somemore it's now cheaper to eat sushi here since Sakae Sushi increased their prices.


Dipped my Naan into my curry and when I took it out, it looked like a fox! Lol.


Chieko and me outside the Indian Curry place.


Christmas decorations are already up in Kobe! I was like "That's really fast" when I saw this and Mariko reminded me that Christmas's only a month away. :D


With Mariko in Kobe!


Re-visted Kangaku and met up with Riko there. The feeling was definitely different now that I dont really know anybody there now. I miss my Kangaku days!!!


With my host-family and Nancy, the new host-student! She's really nice and I actually stayed up till 3am one night because we just couldnt stop chit-chatting. I usually dont talk to people I've just met for so long but it was cool how we managed to hit it off :D


Bought lots of stuff in Kansai but I dont really want to count how much I used. Haha...but at least I truely enjoyed myself!!!

Random Stuff

| | TrackBacks (0)
Havent been updating recently because I sent my VAIO for repairs and couldnt get access to Photoshop to resize my photos....And also, I was feeling really lazy these few days due to slacking around for way too long.
So anyway, this is what I've been doing for the month of September.

Celebrated Teacher's Day for the first time in NUS with my Korean class. We had a little party outside the Admin Block and there were cake, sweets, rice cake and random sorts of stuff. It was cool celebrating Teacher's Day because I havent done it in a long time since I-dont-know-when. So anyway, a photo of Ms Park Mihi and me.


Me, Reina and Tuanyi at one of the coffeeshops near NUS. I didnt know that the row of coffeeshops even existed and have never been there before for the whole 3 years I was in NUS...until September, and I even went there twice...wtf.


The extremely chewy and delicious mochi taiyaki filled with custard and cheese I ate at Plaza Singapura. It was really good and it's even better than the one I ate in Japan!


Went to Ikea on Saturday for dinner and there were so many people there!!! So while Lele, Hidayat and Eunsun went to queue up and buy food for us, Sufi, Fei Ting, Jay and I stayed at our table and starting taking erm...photos of our faces. Took photos of our eyes...


...ears...


...and nostrils too! wtf...


The feast!!! There were meatballs, chicken wings, bread and soup! The meatballs were sooooo good and I made myself eat 5 of them even though I was so stuffed.


(Back)Me, Eunsun, Sufi
(Front)Fei Ting, Jay, Lele, Hidayat


After dinner, we went to Geylang and drove into those small alleys where all the prostitute houses are...so as to be a good guide to our Korean friends and show them part of Singapore! The experience was kinda scary because there were so many men and Hotel 81s. Stupid Hidayat went to wind down the window and shouted "Lai~Cheap Cheap!" and Sufi was so scared that she quickly locked the car doors and sped off. =D


On the road to City Plaza.


At the Hari Raya Bazaar and there were like tons of people there. Couldnt even walk freely without bumping into people all around.


Queued up for Ramly Burger and had my first taste of the burger that day. It was so heavenly!!! I wonder why I've never tried it before...


So anyway, updates of my life. I got the Monbukagakusho Scholarship so I'll be in Japan for around 10months starting from this October, which is like 1.5 weeks away. Yep, gotta start finding and washing all my winter clothes...like right now. God, I hate packing for long trips.

@ Saizeriya

| | Comments (1) | TrackBacks (0)
Went to Liang Court last Wednesday with Donna to celebrate the end of my first exam...What? Who says that you can only celebrate after the end of all exams? Anyway, reason why I chose Liang Court was because I wanted to go to the Ramen Fair at Meidi-ya and only after I said it then I realised that the Ramen Fair only starts on the first of May...wtf. We werent decided on what to eat when I saw a leaflet for Saizeriya and I was like "OMFG, they have Saizeriya in Singapore?! Let's go!". Prices there are relatively cheap but there are fewer choices on the menu as compared to the one in Japan.


Didnt order the drink bar because we figured that we dont drink that much anyway but this couple next to us really made full use of the drink-all-you-can drink bar. They kept refilling their cup after a pretty heavy meal...I hate people who can eat/drink alot and still stay skinny...God is not fair...wtf. Lots of Japanese mums and their kids there that day and the kids were so freaking cute! Wanted to pinch their cheeks but yea, they might haul me off to the police station...Dont want to risk that.
Had escargots for starters.


My cheese gratin that had lots of cheese in it. Damn yummy but I couldnt finish it....:(


Donna acting cute Part 1...but failed at making the peace sign. Probably because I was too slow in pressing the shutter.


Donna acting cute Part 2


Donna acting cute Part 3


Oops...that's not Donna. wtf. We were browsing through books in Kinokuniya where we came across this Tokyo Look or something and he's on the first page. Laughed our heads off because he looks damn hilarious.
Walked around Meidi-ya but didnt buy anything because we were too lazy to lug all the stuff back home so we decided to go and have a tea-break at Azabu Sabo. Had some ice-cream with hotballs...wtf.


Next, we went to Bugis to walk because the rush hour crowd was just horrible and I bought the 1964/65 The Addams Family DVD there. I'm seriously hooked onto that show...Finished 22 episodes in one day. wtf...and I'm supposed to be studying for my exams lo. =D
Had dinner at Ma Maison, a restaurant that I've been dying to try. The food was good but I had to wait kinda long for my Hayashi Rice. Oh, and the mushrooms thing was freaking good. Lotsa cheese, damn sinful, damn long wait but guess what, I dont care. It was just heavenly. :D

Have been eating too much of late...I think it's due to exam stress...-_-.

In Nagasaki dayo~

| | TrackBacks (0)
Went to Orchard the day before with hy to purchase some magazines for school and we took neoprints while we were there. =D What's with the cigarette and the 18-kin(prohibited for those under 18) sign?!


Have been really tired for some reason these few days and all I feel like doing these days is to sleep. Gah, I shouldnt be so lazy...damnit. So anyway, I'm taking a break from sleeping and am going to blog about my Nagasaki trip that took place in erm...January. In er...Japan (aberthen?!).

On the day I was supposed to go to Nagasaki, I went to Wakayama with 3 other friends(which I will blog about some other day) and walked for like the whole day so by the time I met up with Trevor and Neil to take the night bus, I was already half-dead.


The bus ride took like around 8~9 hours and at around 7 plus in the morning, we arrived in Nagasaki! So apparently, Nagasaki is one of the places in Japan that celebrates Chinese New Year, or rather Lantern Festival, as they call it. One uncle there told me that they didnt use to celebrate it but one year the Nagasaki prefecture officials organised this lantern festival event and it became so popular so they decided to continue doing it.


Instead of a hotel, we stayed at this youth hostel called Akari because we wanted to save money. Initially I was apprehensive about staying at a youth hostel because I've never done it before and I dont have a good impression of youth hostels but I was pleasantly surprised by Akari. I will seriously recommend it if you're looking for a cheap and good accomodation. The staff there are really friendly and helpful, the room was really comfortable, free internet and television and the location's also pretty good.
After putting our stuff down and taking a quick shower, we went to visit the Nagasaki Peace Park. Unlike the Hiroshima Peace Park, the Nagasaki one had more statues and I was surprised by the size of it. I always thought that the Nagasaki Peace Park was small but on the contrary, it was freaking big.


Next, we went to the Urakami Cathedral where there is a small chapel that enshrines the statue of Virgin Mary that was destroyed by the atomic bombing. They were having a funeral in the cathedral when we arrived and it was totally weird standing in the main chapel hall while they were saying prayers.


While on the way to the Atomic Bomb Museum, we stopped by this shop to get something called "Rainbow Yokan" which is basically yokan made up of different colored vegetables.


Paper cranes.


A memorial for the Korean A-bomb victims in Nagasaki.


A torii that was destroyed during the bombing. It is still standing but only on one pillar now.


After walking for like a few hours, we decided to have lunch at some random restaurant because we were really hungry. Apart from taking the tram twice, we basically WALKED the whole time while we were in Nagasaki. Everything's situated such so that you can walk from one point to another. We even took a half-an-hour walk back to the station on our last day whilst carrying our heavy backpacks!
Had champon and it was so freaking good.


Also ordered sara-udon and shared it amongst the three of us. We liked this dish so much that we ate it the next day as well...wtf.


Went to a park after lunch where Neil decided to climb over a fence and while coming down, he jumped, slipped and fell. -______-. Was taking a video of him climbing and when he fell down, Trevor and I just started laughing hysterically. Not very nice but it was really hilarious. :D He got really conscious of his wet jeans for the next hour or so.


Visited so many temples and shrines in Nagasaki that I lost track but this is one really old temple and the view from the top of the temple was really good.


The number of animals I touched on this trip is more than the number of animals I've touched in my whole life.


Went to the Art Museum or something and tired Neil decided to take a quick nap while Trevor and I watched this short clip. wtf. Haha.


Had Sasebo burger for dinner and the burger was so fucking big and good. For this trip, I ate so many burgers that I thought that I would never want to see a burger again in my whole life. We had Sasebo burger, Lotteria burger, Macdonalds burger, KFC burger, MOS burger and Wendy's burger for this 6-days trip!!!


Went drinking after dinner and we went to this little pub where I saw this uncle who was trying too hard to get this auntie to sleep with him. Like seriously trying too hard. He kept telling her that he was "lonely" and he kept touching himself down under...eew...wtf...but seriously damn entertaining though because the auntie was not interested in him but was focusing her attention on his friend. =D We changed pubs and a bunch of salarymans at the second pub treated Trevor to one shot of vodka while chanting "Yes we can" or something...-____-.

More photos are on my facebook so yup, till the next entry~

Neoprint machines in Singapore kinda rocks~

I did this part-time job of bringing Japanese students around 2 weeks back. All I had to do was to bring students to places hat they wanted to go to in Singapore and then bring them back safely to the allocated meeting place. It's basically the same thing I did back in 2007. My first group was 5 boys from Tokyo Gakkan High School and of all places to go, they wanted to visit the Bird Park!!! Havent been to the Bird Park since I was like what, in primary school? It was pretty fun to go to the Bird Park after so many years but one thing that sucked was the fucking hot weather. Almost died under the merciless hot sun -___-. We only managed to go to one place of attraction because it takes at least one hour to travel there from Orchard and another hour was wasted on the way back. =(


The second group was 6 girls from Takasaki High School and the only place that they wanted to see was Bugis Street because according to their guidebook...Bugis Street is the Harajuku of Singapore. -________- wtf?! That's like such an insult to Harajuku for goodness sake. Anyway, brought them to see the Sri Mariman Temple first because their teacher wanted the student tour guides to do so. Was supposed to bring them to some other temples as well but seriously, nobody was interested in seeing temples. Walked around Chinatown and I'm so proud of myself for not getting lost! Okay, that's maybe because Qianli came over to help me so I didnt get lost. wtf. Meeting place was at Raffles Landing Site and up till then, I never knew that we had two Raffles statues in Singapore and neither did I know that the new Asian Civilisations Museum is near Raffles Landing Site. No matter what you are thinking now...I am 100% Singaporean okay! Just that I dont know much about Singapore...I should be so ashamed of myself. :(


On the 13th, we had this SB3-reunion-cum-farewell-to-Tommie thing at Lisa's house. Havent been to Lisa's house in ages and it was nice to meet up with my high school classmates after such a long time. Ate, talked and played Taboo. Taboo is like such a fun game and everyone really enjoyed it =D As it was the eve of Valentine's Day, Ray gave every girl there a stalk of rose. We were like "Thank you Ray" before he blurted out that those roses were leftovers from the roses sale at his school. wtf...but he paid for it anyway so, thank you! =D


On Valentine's Day, we had a Korean class gathering at Eileen's house. Last Valentine's, I spent it with my Korean class as well...wtf. We can seriously go cry or something...haha. Ate nasi lemak cooked by Eileen's maid and it was so freaking delicious =D After eating, we went for karaoke and it was so fucking expensive because it was a Saturday night. Bah...but it was fun anyway. =D


Today, I met up with Li Ming and Kymberlyn and I realised that this is actually the first time that we've gone out together as a trio. We also went to take neoprints, a first time for the three of us. :D So we went to this neoprint shop located in Cineleisure and we had to pay in JAPANESE YEN for the machine that we chose...wtf?! It was really tiring taking the neoprints because we had to take photos till the time ran out and we took 16 shots in the end. Cool thing about this machine is that you can send the photos to your cellphone via infrared now! When I was in Japan, I loved their neoprint machines because besides costing half the price of what it costs in Singapore, you can receive the neoprints in .jpg format via email or infrared. I was complaining to my Japanese friend that Singapore's not so high-tech yet and when I come back...VIOLA~ you can now send neoprints to your cellphone! Best thing is you can send ALL the photos that you decorated to your cell~ Whee~












Mid-term break's ending soon and my teacher just told us that we have a new assignment due on Monday...damn! Gotta unpack my boxes and luggages from Japan, Hong Kong and Taiwan or else my mum will never stop nagging...damn! Going to take a rest now~ Tata~

25 random stuff

| | TrackBacks (0)
What I wrote for facebook. =D

Write 25 random things about yourself and tag 25 others to do the same thing...wtf.

1) The only person that I love more than myself is my grandmother who stays in Malaysia. =D I cry enough to fill the Pacific Ocean(obviously exaggerating) whenever I have to leave her. I swear that the Malaysia immigrations officer was trying to stifle his laughter when I walked passed him bawling in 2008.

2) I procrastinate alot and that's why I wrote point no. 1 at 3pm+ and point no. 2 at 5pm. Heh.

3) I've been to Japan 5 times in 3 years, Korea 3 times in 4 years, China 2 times in 3 years and I've been to Malaysia ALOT of times...and that's because my dad's family stays there. The country which I want to go again is Japan...wtf. My friend once commented that I disappear off to Japan every vacation. Not true okay, Fiona Eng! Haha.

4) Contrary to what people think, I am an introvert and I am really shy but I can be really fun and irritating when you get to know me. Kar Fai once said that he thought that I was quiet during the first 3 months of JC but I just couldnt shut up after the first 3 months...-___-.

5) I have ZERO general knowledge and my geography sucks. I used to think that Bintan was some island in Singapore and was seriously puzzled when my teacher cracked a joke about her friend not bringing a passport to visit Bintan. Then, I was like "Why do you need a passport? You're just moving around Singapore lo!". My sister never stops making fun of me because of this.

6) I am very gossipy and I love gossip ALOT, even if it doesnt concern me...wtf...I have no life. This is probably why Donna likes going out with me.

7) I hate public speaking to the core and I get jitters when I have to do presentations in class...even if there are only 3 people in my class and I know all of them well. I tend to speak fast when I'm nervous and this can be proved by the fact that I usually complete my presentations in less than 3 minutes. Oh, and by the way, the given time for the presentations is usually 10~20 minutes. Someone please teach me how to do public speaking!

8) My English pronunciation is really bad and my sister always laugh at me for it. I tried pronouncing the word "aphrodisiac" but ended up pronouncing it as "eh-fro-see-dee-act". Dont ask me why I was trying to pronounce this word.

9) I am the messiest girl you'll ever meet BUT I can be neat if I want to...just that I dont want to. I usually tidy up my room once in a blue moon but I never fail to mess it up again after one week. Clothes just manage to appear from nowhere.

10) Am really bad at writing stuff and I'm actually stuck already at point no. 10. My teacher once commented that I write like a elementary school kid when I was in high school. As much as I wanted to prove her wrong, I couldnt. =(

11) Dont laugh but I think that I'm damn nice. =D I can be nice to people that I dont like because I feel that there is no need to tell others that I dont like them. I am also nice to peope that I like. So in conclusion, I am nice to everybody! Whee~

12) I can be damn fake. See point no. 11, second sentence.

13) I am an internet addict and I can be stuck to my computer for the whole day...even if I have other pressing matters to attend to. This illustration also proves my point no. 2 of me being a procrastinator.

14) People think that I'm good at Japanese(yes, I know that this is damn 不要脸) but I seriously do not think so. I am actually pretty bad at Japanese, especially written Japanese. I write like a elementary school kid remember??

15) I hate making new friends because I hate the part where you have to part someday. This explains why I have so little friends in NUS, my university. The number is going to get smaller when Hao Yang and Fiona graduates this semester. Are you going to leave me behind too as well, Sharon Tan?

16) I am actually damn auntie. I love discounts, compare prices and I fight for seats on the trains in Singapore...Only in Singapore though...because people are kiasu enough to elbow others to make sure that they get a seat. 发挥auntie精神!!!

17) I have no idea what I want to do in the future. Part 1 of my "I want to marry a dying, rich old man so I can use his money after he dies" wish is just for laughs. Part 2 of my "I will then use his money to go to host clubs" wish is also just for laughs...I think.

18) I am not a paedophile, no matter what you think. I may like Japanese high-school boys but that's because I like their uniforms, not the boys...I think. And I dislike dating someone younger than me because they're probably immature and I might have to feed them in future. wtf.

19) I might say that I'm pretty, cute, (add nice words here) but deep down, I dont actually mean it. =D

20) I think that little girls are ugly but little boys are cute. Okay, not all but most. Once again, this doesnt mean that I'm a paedophile.

21) Unlike my friend who divides friends into 友達、友人、仲間 and 知り合い, I do not. I call everyone whom I know who is not family, a friend. I dont see the need to classify friends into different categories.

22) I can dislike people for no apparent reason and similarly, I can like people for no apparent reason as well. People used to ask me why I dislike (insert name here) but I seriously have no idea why. When I end up disliking someone I used to like, I find it difficult to re-like that person. However, it is easier for me to like someone that I disliked originally.

23) I am not afraid of dying but I'm afraid of losing my loved ones.

24) I know nuts about politics and although I feel that I should be learning more about what's happening in the political world, I'm just too lazy to do so. Please give me a crash course, Donna Tan...when you have the time that is.

25) My idea of what's pretty/cute/handsome/hot is different from many others. My friends usually dont trust my taste. -_-. People whom I think is cute, my friends think that they're fugly. People whom my friends think are hot, I think that they're so-so. All the better what!!! We wont fight~lalala.

I cant believe I spent almost one hour on this thing when I should really be doing my homework. (^_^)

Tadaima =(

Came back from Hyogo last Saturday. Seriously feeling withdrawal symptoms from being too long in Japan. Okay, 5 months is probably not a long period for most people but it's the longest time I've been away from home so yup, 5 months is a long period of time to me. I really miss everyone I've met in Hyogo and I really want to see everyone again before they return back to their respective countries. Someone please sponsor me to go see them? I dont know how many times I cried when I was about to leave and I even feel like tearing now while typing this...wtf. Why do I cry so much?!

Took Singapore Airlines back and the service totally sucked. Okay, not totally but pretty much sucked. The air stewardess was really rude and showed me this black face when she helped me place my luggage in the overhead compartment. Best thing was that she was the one who OFFERED to help me in the first place. She was really rough and I couldnt stand the way she pronounced "vegetables" as "ve-gee-tay-bers". Anyway, my check-in luggage weighed around 33kg and I'm happy that they didnt charge me for excess baggage.


I always thought that SIA flights from Japan land in Terminal 3 but we ended up in Terminal 2 so I had to call my father to tell him of the change. Initially I wasnt aware that I was in Terminal 2 and I was pretty pissed off when my father told me that he couldnt find my belt number. =D Oh and my mum got into a minor car accident and we had to take a taxi back that day.


Me trying to imitate Donald Duck. Why is Changi Airport filled with so many Disney characters?! I thought for a moment that I was in Disneyland lo!


My parents and me. Although they're smiling in this photo, my mum was actually in shock because of the accident and I think my father was slightly pissed because he has to fork out money to repair the car.


Back home in my room. I've managed yet again to mess up my room in less than a week...wtf. I seriously suspect that I'm a guy or something because I'm so effing messy. Everyone in Japan seriously got a shock when they saw the photo of my room in Japan. Will post it up here next time. Heh.


Pineapple tarts! Finished two cans of them le...shit. I seriously need to go lose weight.


Angpows that were waiting for me in my room. Okay, not all of them were mine. Half of these belongs to my sister. I was initially so excited to see so many angpows until my mum told me that I was supposed to share them with my sister.


School started 3 weeks ago but yup, I missed all 3 weeks so I have to try to catch up now. Pretty much sucks because of the workload but it was all worth it. I was able to spend more time with my friends in Japan and I'm happy I managed to do that. =D
Went out with Donna yesterday and I lost count of how much food we ate. Haha. Went to the Lee Kong Chian Reference Library for the first time in my life to print notes. My textbook costs a fucking 107dollars at Kino and so being cheapo, I decided to print the relevant chapters at the library so as to complete my homework. =D Have to buy the book anyway because it's an open-book test and we are not supposed to bring in materials that go against copyright laws...bah.


Me and Donna at Lot 1.


Singapore has changed pretty much in 5 months. First of all, there's Juicy Couture...wtf...and there's Majorlica something. Also, Clementi has this new building and much more. I was so amazed by the changes that happened in 5 months. Damn...I hate change...why cant everything stay the way it used to be?

SKS Outing at SU

| | TrackBacks (0)
Will blog about my Hiroshima trip some other time because I'm still sorting out pictures. I think I took way too many pictures...(*_*)

Anyway, met up with my fellow SKS classmates yesterday at SU Korean restaurant. As usual, everyone was late. Normally I dont really mind if people are late but yesterday was kind of bad because I needed to leave early and Felie was going to reach like after I leave. In fact, she did arrive after I left. -_-. The reason why I left early was to go watch Hanayori Dango Final(HYDF) with Li Ming. HYDF was interesting throughout the whole movie(like Cyborg She) and why are Japanese guys(e.g. Oguri Shun and Matsuda Shota) so cute one ar?! I felt that they didnt give Oguri Shun, Matsuda Shota and Abe Tsuyoshi enough screen time. They came out for like only a few minutes in total lor! So disappointing...I was anticipating more Hanazawa Rui initially. =( Although HYDF was interesting, the storyline was so predictable(guessed the plot like 20minutes into the movie) and unreal...like seriously, it's never going to happen in real life! Okay, I think that nobody's going to understand what I just wrote but whatever la, like as if anyone understands what I wrote in my previous entries anyway. Lalala, I talk nonsense and I'm proud of it.

After the 130minutes movies, I rushed back to SU to continue eating. Yes, they were still eating there after like 3 hours. Whee~ Ordered cold noodles there and were happily eating it until the waiter came over, saw that we didnt add the vinegar and mustard, and proceeded to exclaim out loud, "You didnt add these?!" He then helped us to add the vinegar and mustard in and asked us to try how it tasted like. All of us agreed that it tasted better without adding anything. (^_^) I guess we have different tastebuds from the Koreans. When he saw our expressions, he thought that he added too much vinegar or something and proceeded to taste his masterpiece. "It's good, but we add more mustard in Korea." Erm, okaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay. Then again, it was nice of him to teach us the right way of eating cold noodles. =D

After eating, we started to take weird photos in the restaurant and I think that we seriously scared the people eating/working there. Paiseh lo, when four crazy people get together, they tend to get a bit rowdy and crazy. Too bad Ann's still in Australia otherwise I think that SU would've probably ban us from the restaurant for the rest of our lives. When I say weird photos, I really mean weird photos...ta-da~


Us again, with Eileen trying to "attract" the waiter who mixed the cold noodles for us. Peggy and Eileen thought that he was kind of cute and was trying to take his photos the whole time but only managed to take photos of his back. Eh---------lousy photographers. Should've had asked me to take...confirm can take face one. Had enough training back in my JC paparazzi days. Heh.


Another siao(crazy) group photo. Then again, looking at all the pictures that we took, I'm like the only one giving weird facial expressions. Oh no!!! Am I the only siao one?!


After a very filling 3+ hours meal, we continued our "Get Fat" mission at Gelare. Ordered this wonderfully chocolatey double-scoop Cookies and Cream ice-cream topped with Koko Krunch and Oreo biscuits...


...chocolate brownie topped with vanilla ice-cream and a outside-crispy-inside-chewy waffle with 2 scoops of ice- cream. In total, we ate like 5 scoops of ice-cream...how not to get fat?!


Why do I look scared of Peggy here? Hmm...


Cant stand it...why are there so many strange photos of me?! Come to think of it, I havent taken weird photos like this in a long long la la time. Whee~


Eileen with her True Yoga bag and waterbottle. Eh, you think that you're True Yoga spokesperson ar?! -_-


Group photo minus Eileen because I aimed the camera at the wrong direction. See, told you that my photography skills are superb!


Whee~


Anyway, went karaoke-ing with hy, Eugene and Kevin today. Cash Studios is like my favourite karaoke place right now. We sang for more than 4 hours and they didnt charge us extra. Somemore can bring in your own food and drinks....seriously, how do they earn money?! They even offered to change our rooms for us because the next group of people who booked the room that we were using were coming soon. Damn nice =D The waitress kept smiling at us somemore. Normally at places like Kbox, the waitresses have this "I-cant-be-bothered-about-you" look plastered across their faces. Surprisingly, Kevin was like damn good at singing. He can sing songs by both male and female artistes and his rap was damn cool. Eh, isnt that like my sister? Heh.

Ate at Ajitei for dinner with hy. Ordered lots of food and dessert as well!!! Had substandard yomogi dango for dessert. The shape of the dango reminded me more of a lemon than a dango...wtf.


Had pizza for supper. Damn cool la the shape! The pizza tasted wonderful too by the way.


Okay, shall end this post abruptly because I got nothing else to write. More pictures of the crazy four of us here:

Shopping~!

Did a little shopping yesterday and today. Bought books, leggings, dresses and cosmetics. Damn happy with my purchases but at the same time, I'm feeling really broke. I'm seriously in need of money. Please contribute to the "Save Jiahui Fund" by contacting me. Any amount will be appreciated.

Nah, just kidding. Then again, it wouldn't hurt. Lalala. Accompanied Donna for her interview at SMU yesterday (and to also do some shopping). While waiting at the bench outside SMU, because one cant enter the SMU building if you do not have a SMU pass(wtf), I saw quite a number of SMU students dressed up in formal wear. Seriously, it was 7+ in the evening and it's the freaking holidays for goodness sake! Wear something casual can! I know that there's summer term but did they really have to wear so nice for school? I don't even bother putting on a nice T-shirt for school lor. I wear crumpled old T-shirts to school. =D Then again, I'm not from SMU...and that's probably why I got weird "Oh-my-god-look-at-her-dressed-so-shabbily" stares from formal-wear-students.

Before going to SMU, we had a little tea break at Coffee Club Express...or whatever the shop was called. Ordered a chicken pie and iced mocha. The chicken pie was so freaking good and it was the first time that I was served a chicken pie that was already cut open. The filling was scrumptious but it tasted a bit like the chicken vegetable stew by Campbell that I love.


Not-so-secretly took a photo of Donna while she was erm...looking at her iced tea.


Didnt drink my iced mocha straight away when it arrived. When I finally got down to drinking it, some of the ice had already melted and my drink was basically overflowing, thus, dirtying the table. Damn paiseh and sorry to whoever who had to clean it up.


Went out today with Kym to Vivocity. Ate at Earle Swensen's. The salad buffet was not bad, the meat was passable but the vegetables was...horrible. Ice cream was delicious as usual. Hee. Walked around Vivocity and while at Nichii Fashion City, we saw this Lindsay Lohan t-shirt. Erm...damn old picture can.


Next, we went to Zara. Normally Zara stuff are like freaking expensive but as they were having a sale, prices were slashed by ALOT and so...I made my first ever purchase from Zara. Whee~ Had coffee at Starbucks and I never knew until today that there's two Starbucks outlets in Vivocity. Seriously, need so many outlets in ONE shopping centre meh?!

Okay, shall resume watching online videos. Lalala.

Went out to have lunch with Donna today. Ate at Ajisen and I tried silverfish for the first time. WTF the silverfish anyway? The only silverfish that I know is that icky insect or whatever that likes to crawl in old books. Eeeeew. Tasted damn nice though, the silverfish(the actual fish, not the insect) dish.

Studied at Mac afterwards. The problem with studying at Mac is that...there's just too much temptations!!! Succumbed to temptation and ordered oreo cheesecake. Damn sinful can! After we finished eating, we used the leftover chocolate sauce to draw smiley faces.


I'm an artist in the making! Yoohoo. Please get my signature now before I become a famous artist so that you can sell it for $$$ in the future. (Not going to happen for sure.)


After studying, to reward ourselves, we went...SHOPPING. I havent shopped for like weeks and it was really relaxing and fun to shop like crazy. Bought the above pair of shoes for only $19.90 at Mondo. Damn freaking cheap.


$10 dress. What, I cannot be a cheapo ar?! I love cheap stuff~


This dress was a bit big for me but it was so pretty so I bought it anyway. Not very clear in the photo but the bottom of the dress' really shiny. I fancy shiny stuff. Bling bling~

I obviously did not buy these few items only but I bought much much more but I'm too lazy to upload those photos. Hee :D

This post is so meaningless. Sorry for killing your brain cells if you read this. :D
